SUMMARY:Sweet on You: The Art of the Mountain Maple
DESCRIPTION:From the misty mountains to the sugar shacks\, maple has flowed through West Virginia’s cultural veins for generations. West Virginia is home to one of the largest concentrations of Maple trees in the country and folks have been tapping trees for centuries\, capturing the sweet water from the Maple and creating the delectable maple syrup. South Side Studios and Future Generations University are proud to partner on an art show during Maple Days to raise awareness of this industry which contributes so much to our region’s heritage: Sweet on You: The Art Of Mountain Maple. This exhibition celebrates this living legacy through the eyes of regional artists who capture unique aspects of our state’s maple tradition\, bringing together paintings\, photographs\, and mixed media works as well as historical information\, all that celebrate Maple Days 2025.\n\nThe exhibition will run from February 21 – April 18\, 2025. The reception and celebration will take place on March 18th from 1PM- 4PM to coincide with WV Maple Days!
